My new mantra recently has been “no authority greater than my own.” I very much related to your letting go of self help because I had come to something similar on my own. I am always reading articles, books etc to “improve” myself until it just becomes that much unnecessary chatter in my mind.
I want to come to a place of stillness where I can hear the messages within that guide me.
My life has been throwing me some heavy duty challenges in the last month and I am still on my feet! I can so much relate to what hope said about “opening boxes of pain.” Each of these challenges is offering me to opportunity to open my own boxes of pain from the past and in letting them out into the fresh air and stillness, I can see them in a new way

What have I been creating in the last three months?

I have been laying the groundwork to have the strength to experience deep pain that has burdened me for a long, long time. Without realizing it, I’ve been preparing for the depression I’m in now. On a deep level, I’m opening boxes of pain I’ve had put away for a very long time. Now I’m ready to sink into this sorrew, feel battered and bruised, but also feel strong enough to come out of it again, this time able to heal the pain and be done with it.

I’ve been getting ready to re-break broken parts of myself so they can grow into healthy, strong parts.

I didn’t realize that was the case until I read the question in your post! Then it all just welled up out of me – Thank you!
